Also, here's a quick guide for SCCA classing. Regardless of what you've done to your car, the focus will only fall into the classes listed below. I've added a few details that should give you a good place to start, then check out the rule to confirm your mods fit the class. You can always PM me if you have a specific classing question, or start a quick thread, I'm glad to help out.

Stock class, like it sounds, almost no mods. The top guys will run R-comps and pricey dampers though.
2000-2011 Focus, all (Including SVT) H stock

Street Modified, if you added a turbo/supercharger, you're here. As long as you don't remove any interior beyond the rear seats/belts, this is as high as you'll go. Check out the rules.
2000-2011 Focus, SMF (note this class is supplimental, cars could revert back to SM)

Prepared, how fast you go is directly proportional to the size of your bank account. Not many restrictions here. Check out the rules.
2000-2011 Focus, EP

Modified:
You must be lost or have way to much money, read the rule book before coming out :D

If I made any errors in the above let me know too, now get out and race!

one question, if i run the svt motor in my normally zetec car does that bump me to modified or do i stay in EP

what are the engine swap rules for Prepared?

First off I'll state that I'm not familiar with prepared or modified rules, but it does look like there is allowance for update back date in prepared, and all foci are on the same line in Appendix A.

1. Equipment and/or specifications may be exchanged between different
years and models of a vehicle if
(a) the item is standard on the year/model from which it was taken,
and
(b) the years/models are listed on the same line of Appendix A
(Prepared Classes). The updated/backdated part or the part
to which it is to be attached may not be altered, modified, machined
or otherwise changed to facilitate the updating/backdating
allowance unless the modification is specifically allowed by
these rules. ...

So update/backdate is allowed, engine mods are pretty open, I think someone would be hard pressed to protest that switch, especially if engine mounts are free. No reason that I would send you up to modified. Those people are crazy anyway
